If it was my tank I would take the time to get it level, just because it would bother me. However as others have said it is fine (won't cause any problems).

It would bother me also. Why can you not get it level using shims? I’ve had lots of tanks on unlevel floors and never had issues getting the tanks level.

The bigger problem, by the way, is not that the tank is out of level in the long dimension, it is ensuring there is no twist. In other words, make sure the tank is out of level equally along both the front and back edges.

Nobody can tell you it won’t be a problem, only that it probably won’t be a problem.
